Many people associate her with her eventful career as a sexy star. However, there is still one side of her that most are not familiar with. Meet Maria Ozawa, the celebrity entrepreneur.
Her business-minded spirit has been innate in her, as she has been dabbling in different projects since her 20s.
“I wanted to start something new,” the Japanese-Canadian shared.
Maria learned the ropes from her old boss. She also looks up to successful business people who started from scratch by listening to their interviews.
A self-made individual, she values firsthand experience. Her advice to those who want to follow this path: never give up.
Currently, she co-owns bars in Japan and the Philippines. BAR ドランク or Bar Drunk in Tokyo is an establishment she and her friend opened when she returned to Japan two years ago. Meanwhile, Singles Bar is a gentlemen’s club located at Resorts World Manila in Pasay.
Once the pandemic is over and restrictions are lifted, she would like to expand to other regions of Southeast Asia.
